I remember nothing of that year except that elections were held, and someone, on a night that seemed to me interminable, swore blind that I was Catalan. I continued on my way. I turned a corner. The north wind was blowing hard, and I remembered that, in my youth, I wanted to be many different people and from many different places at the same time, because being only one person seemed too narrow somehow. When I turned another corner and the wind beat against me even harder, I finally understood something I had suspected for a long time. We are too much like ourselves, and the danger is that we end up resembling ourselves too closely. As one’s life progresses, the same obsessive, insignificant character takes root. I turned another corner and have still not woken up from the nightmare of waking up from a nightmare and finding that I’m still working in a circus in Oklahoma, and there is no way out.

PORT DE LA SELVA, 1977
